Special K Day

On December 27, 2009, we walked a cobblestone road to an orphanage in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, where K was placed in our arms and our lives were forever changed. After months of staring at her picture and longing to hold her, our prayers were answered and she was forever entrusted to us. And precious K, one year ago today, her little world was turned upside down as she was taken by two strangers from the comforting familiarity of Hannah's Hope and her beloved special mothers. As the days, weeks and months have gone by, her trust, connection and love for us has grown. We have become family. We feel so undeserving yet so incredibly grateful for the opportunity to be K's Mom-Mom and Daddy. That she is the little girl we were matched with is something that could only have been orchestrated from the heavens. Thank You God! She is a perfect fit and has blessed us beyond words.
